Abstract

BackgroundAt present, Internet of Things technology has been widely used in various fields, and smart health is also one of its important application areas.MethodsWe use the core collection of Web of Science as a data source, using tools such as CiteSpace and bibliometric methods to visually analyze 9561 articles published in the field of smart health research based on the Internet of things (IoT) in 2003–2019, including time distribution, spatial distribution, and literature co-citation analysis and keyword analysis.ResultsThe field of smart health research based on IoT has developed rapidly since 2014, but has not yet formed a stable network of authors and institutions. In addition, the knowledge base in this field has been initially formed, and most of the published literatures are multi-theme research.ConclusionsThis study discusses the research status, research hotspots and future development trends in this field, and provides important knowledge support for subsequent research.

Summary

Introduction

Internet of Things technology has been widely used in various fields, and smart health is one of its important application areas. The Internet of Things (IoT) is an important representative of the new generation of information technology. It is the result of rapid development in the field of wireless communications in recent years, and it is a network that extends on the Internet [1]. It can connect various information sensing devices (such as Radio Frequency Identification, infrared sensors, laser scanners, etc.) to the Internet to realize the “Internet of Everything” [2]. The use of IoT technology to solve health problems has become one of the research hotspots in the field of smart health
